Following the confirmed departure of Hernán Torres, there have already been a number of possible candidates for the Bombillo bench.
Following the confirmation given by Diario Olé Ecuador of Hernán Torres’ departure from Emelec, the names of the Colombian’s possible replacements have already begun to emerge.The rumors of the blue coach’s non-continuity have been going on since April and since then options have already started to appear.
Torres will remain with the Electrics until the end of Phase 1 of the LigaPro, on June 2. After that, he will leave, as he resigned and will not opt for the automatic renewal that he had until December of this year.
Therefore, the management of the Millionaires team has plenty of time to choose a new coach for the second stage of the tournament. In which they want to seek first place to qualify for the final or, at least, get a good score to earn a place in the Copa Libertadores.
One of the technical directors who is expected to join the Guayaquil team is the Venezuelan César Farías, who even confirmed that someone from Bombillo had contacted him.“I apologized to the entire Ecuadorian family. During this time, El Nacional and Barcelona called me through José Chamorro, and yesterday (Wednesday, May 1) I cannot say who called through Emelec. I made a serious mistake that I paid for, and I am no longer sanctioned,” Farías said on Blu Radio at the beginning of this month.
💡YES, THE LIGHT BULB CONTACTED HIM💡

Farías is currently without a team after leaving América de Cali, a team with which he did not have a good run.The Venezuelan is listening to offers and likes the idea of returning to Ecuador, where he could direct without problems as of June 11 because he would have fulfilled the 14-month suspension for assaulting Delfín players when he was coach of Aucas.
At Papá, the 51-year-old coach led 45 matches in which he achieved 23 victories, 12 draws and ten defeats.With the Orientales they won Phase 2 of the LigaPro 2022 and in the final they defeated Barcelona with a global score of 1-0 for the First national title for the Orientales. Farías made history in Ecuador and as a free coach, Emelec contacted him.
Emelec contacted Cesar Farias.
Alfredo Arias, the other option
The other name that has been heard a lot in the last few hours is that of Alfredo Arias (65 years old), the Uruguayan who was already on the blue benchHe is currently at Deportivo Independiente Medellín (DIM) in Colombia, where he played in the final of the previous tournament. Therefore, it is more difficult for him to leave there since he is comfortable there.
In 2016 he arrived at Bombillo and made it champion in 2017, the following year he left. In total he managed Emelec in 107 matches in all competitions, winning 56, drawing 22 and losing 29.
